Kaelon

The soft sound of the bathroom door creaking open drew my attention, and I turned to see her stepping out.

My pulse quickened.

Liv stood there, her damp hair clinging to her shoulders, a plush towel barely covering the curves of her body.

Her flushed cheeks betrayed her embarrassment as she realized I was still in the room.

“Damn it,” she muttered under her breath, clutching the towel tighter around her chest. Her wide eyes darted toward the door, clearly contemplating an escape.

But I wasn’t about to let her go.

Taking a slow step forward, I closed the distance between us. Her breathing hitched as I reached out and gently tucked a stray strand of wet hair behind her ear.

My fingers lingered on her cheek, reveling in the warmth of her skin.

“You’re going to catch a cold if you stay like this,” I murmured, my voice low and deliberate.

“Kaelon, you should leave,” she said, though her voice lacked conviction. Her eyes flickered between my gaze and the door.

    Liv’s POVRing!!! “Shut the fuck up!" I muttered as I slammed my hands over the blaring alarm. Rose had installed her annoying alarms in all the rooms. “An elegant lady wakes before her alarm goes off." I rolled my eyes as her voice replayed in my mind. Couldn't blame her anyways. She was raised that way by her elegant relatives.I looked outside the window and I could see the first streak of sunlight filtering through the blinds.I groaned, shifting under the sheets. My muscles ache in the most delicious way, and then—the memories hit me like a bolt of lightning.Kaelon. His lips. His hands. I shut my eyes and opened it again. But it felt like I was watching a scene out of a forbidden erotica.Had my back pressed to the wall, his throbbing cock pumping deep into my wet pussy, his firm grip over my breasts and the fucking hot way he asked me to say his name.Damn it.Heat pooled in my core just thinking about it, and I squeezed my thighs together, desperate to ignore the pulse bui

    Liv’s POVI immediately picked up my iPad and clicked opened the email notification.My stomach did a flip dance as I read the content, causing thin lines to grace my twenty-five dollar moisturized face."The Blackwood Corporation main office?" I muttered to myself, narrowing my eyes. "I thought I applied to the fashion line. Why on earth would my interview be at their main headquarters?"My voice was louder than I intended, drawing the attention of Vio, who was plastering some avocado jam to her toast. She glanced up, her honey-blonde hair catching the morning sunlight filtering through the window."Technically, the fashion line you applied to is a subsidiary of Blackwood," she said, her tone nonchalant. "So, it makes sense you’d be interviewed there."I rolled my eyes and pressed my lips into a tight line. "It still feels… off. Like there’s more to this."Rose set her coffee mug down and gave me a look, her eyes sharp and knowing. "Are you overthinking again, Liv? Not every shadow

  • Pregnant For My Ex-Fiancé’s Father    About this

    Aaron’s POVI woke up with a pounding headache that felt like someone was playing drums inside my skull. The sunlight streaming through the partially closed curtains didn’t help. I groaned, running a hand over my face, trying to remember how much I drank last night. Too much, clearly. My tongue felt like sandpaper, and my body ached from sleeping in a twisted position on my bed.I dragged myself to the bathroom, splashing cold water on my face in an attempt to shake off the remnants of last night’s stupidity. The mirror reflected back bloodshot eyes and a scruffier version of myself than I liked. A quick shave and shower later, I looked presentable enough.The smell of coffee wafted up to me as I descended the grand staircase. My father was at the dining table, finishing his breakfast while reading something on his tablet. He looked calm and composed, as he always did, his posture impeccable and his movements precise.I slid into a seat, grabbed a plate, and started piling food on

    Liv’s POVI stepped into the elevator, clutching my folder tightly against my chest. The polished steel walls reflected my nervous expression, and I bit my lower lip, willing myself to calm down. Just as the doors were about to close, a familiar, deep voice echoed through the corridor."Hold the elevator!"My heart skipped a beat as Kaelon strode in, his presence as commanding as ever. He was dressed in a tailored navy-blue suit that flaunted his broad shoulders and lean frame. The faint scent of his cologne reached me, stirring something I desperately wanted to suppress.He wasn’t alone. A strikingly elegant woman followed him. She was tall, with caramel skin that seemed to glow under the fluorescent lights. Her sleek black hair was pulled into a high ponytail, accentuating her sharp cheekbones. She wore a fitted pant trouser, paired with a cream blouse that hugged her curves. The crimson stilettos on her feet clicked against the elevator floor as she entered, carrying a tablet

    Liv's POV I guess this is how it feels to be fucking hired. I tried to be happy and believe that this was all real, but I could not shake off the fact that this all came too clean and smooth. I sighed and guessed maybe it was my luck, but the fact that I was going to be seeing Kaelon everyday made me cringe with excitement. I looked around the still room and the only thing in motion was the silver plaited wall clock hanging above the door. I was so carried away by the beauty of the wall clock that I barely noticed the soft click of the door opening until a woman stepped inside. She was poised and immaculate, her outfit looking like something straight out of Pinterest or a high-fashion catalog. Her white blouse was crisp and fitted, tucked perfectly into a knee-length navy pencil skirt. A silver chain glinted against her neck, and her black heels clicked softly against the polished floor as she approached me.“Miss Bennet, I presume?” she said with a polite smile. Her voice was

  • Pregnant For My Ex-Fiancé’s Father    His office

    Liv’s POVI stopped a few feet from his desk, close enough to make my presence clear but still near the door. My spine was rigid, every muscle taut, like a bowstring pulled tight. I refused to let him see the nerves rattling inside me.Kaelon motioned to the chair opposite him. "Sit," he said, his voice smooth, confident.“I’ll stand,” I replied sharply. The slight upward twitch of his eyebrow made me stick with my decision the more. I wasn’t here to play his game.I crossed my arms, glaring at him. That calm smile on his face only fueled my irritation. Did nothing rattle this man? The answer came quickly: probably not. He thrived on control. He was used to it. But not with me."Why did you bring me here?" I demanded.Kaelon tilted his head slightly, amusement flashing in his silver-gray eyes. "I assume you mean why I hired you. That’s a question better suited for your own reflection. You’re more than qualified, Liv. Or do you think otherwise?""Don’t patronize me," I snapped.The cor

    Liv’s POVAll Kaelon did was return his dick back into his pants. I adjusted my skirt and quickly adjusted my breast back into place before buttoning my blouse. I quickly sat in the seat he offered me a while back.He smiled. “Come in,” he called, his voice calm, as though nothing had happened.His assistant stepped inside, her eyes flicking between us briefly before settling on Kaelon. “Sir, it’s time for your lunch.”Kaelon straightened, adjusting his tie. "Thank you, Eleanor." He turned to me, his expression unreadable. "Come with me."“Excuse me?” I asked, still trying to catch my breath.“You heard me,” he said, already moving toward the door. “You’ll join me for lunch."I hesitated, torn between wanting to escape and the inexplicable pull that kept me rooted to him. Against my better judgment, I followed.We made a brief pause at my office, so I could get my bag.The air outside was crisp, signaling the end of summer and the encroaching grip of winter.

    Kaelon’s POV “Here’s the latest reports from the import services subsidiary of the Blackwood corpoaration, Mr Blackwood,” I pretended not to see the questioning look that Eleanor had on as she passed me the ipad. I owed her no explanation. She has worked for me long enough to know her boundaries. She wouldn’t ask questions, nor would she offer unsolicited opinions. That was one of the reasons I kept her around—discretion was a rare quality, and Eleanor had it in spades. She left the private dining area without a word, leaving me alone with my thoughts.The restaurant was silent, the kind of silence money could buy. I’d made sure of that by reserving the entire place. Privacy wasn’t just a preference—it was a necessity. The private section of the restaurant was designed with understated elegance: dark wood panels, dim lighting that cast warm glows over the table settings, and plush leather chairs that seemed to swallow you whole.It was just me and Liv here, and for now, she wasn

    Kaelon's POVThe air in the boardroom was thick with the scent of expensive cologne and freshly brewed coffee. A long mahogany table stretched before me, filled with board members in their tailored suits, their eyes fixed on me as I wrapped up my presentation. The quarterly report had been solid, but I could sense a shift in the room—something off. A strange energy buzzed beneath the surface.Then, the door swung open.Louisa, my secretary, never interrupted meetings. Never. The people seated at the table turned their attention to her But now, she strode in with hurried steps, her face pale.

    LIV’S POVThe plan was to spend the next two weeks at my fathers ranch. I never really planned for any of these. No fucking person ever does!I had entered my car after a couple of hugs and goodbyes with Rose, Lara and Vio. I drove off.The road ahead blurred through the veil of unshed tears clouding my vision. My fingers clenched around the steering wheel as I forced my foot off the gas, the car slowing to an uneasy stop on the side of the deserted road. My pulse hammered in my ears, drowning out the hum of the engine as I reached for my phone, already dreading what I’d see.The screen glowed in the dim interior of the car, displaying countless notifications—texts, calls, news alerts.

    VIV’S POVThe room was dimly lit, the soft glow of the bedside lamp casting long shadows across the luxurious furnishings. I leaned back against the plush velvet headboard, my fingers tapping impatiently on the sleek surface of my laptop. My heart pounded, not with nerves, but with anticipation.I had been waiting for this moment.A scandal this big needed to be executed with precision, and I had made sure to cover my tracks. No one would trace it back to me. I reached for my phone, my fingers brushing over the smooth glass before I brought it to my ear."Is it done?" I asked, keeping my voice low."Almost," the distorted voice on the other end replied. The vocoder app I was using made me sound unrecognizable. "The post will be live in ten minutes. I made sure to include all the pictures and just enough juicy details to send the internet into a frenzy."A slow smile curled my lips. "Good. And you made sure it was anonymous?""Of course.

    KAELON’S POVThe office was quiet except for the faint hum of the air conditioner and the rhythmic tapping of my fingers against the polished wood of my desk. The city skyline stretched out beyond the floor-to-ceiling windows, but my focus wasn’t on the view. It hadn’t been for days.“No, Kaelon. I can’t do this. I can’t be part of a lie. If you can’t trust me enough to be honest with me, then I don’t know what we’re doing here.” Her voice kept replaying in my head for every single time I wanted to work or turned to look at the sofa. She was almost everywhere and that was eating me up.I was trying to work. Trying to lose myself in the endless reports and figures in front of me. But no matter how many contracts I approved or how many meetings I scheduled, one thought remained—Liv.I had done this to myself. I had been the one to suggest going public, to push the conversation that sent her retreating like a deer startled in the woods. I had been reckless, and now she was gone. And it

    LIV’S POVSince the day I stormed out of Kaelon’s office, I have done my best to stay away from him as much as I could.He kept calling but, “Who gives a shit?” I murmured as I rolled my eyes.The silence between Kaelon and me stretched for days, thick and suffocating like a storm cloud that refused to break. How did he transition from wanting to go public about our relationship to not wanting to go public anymore? As if it had all been a mistake. As if I had been a mistake. I sat on the edge of my bed, the soft glow of my bedside lamp casting long shadows across the room. My phone lay next to me, untouched, its screen dark. I had checked it more times than I wanted to admit, hoping and praying that he would reach out again. But he didn’t. Maybe he was caught up with work or whatever.I could not help but wonder why he was now pushing me away. I wrapped my arms around myself, trying to hold in the anger that simmered beneath my skin. I had told him I wasn’t comfortable wit

  • Pregnant For My Ex-Fiancé’s Father    The game

    VIV’S POVWhatever the fuck my father said that made me come here? It needs to be recorded and kept on a constant replay. The crisp morning air carried a whisper of autumn as I stepped out of the towering office building, my heels clicking against the pavement. The interview had gone smoothly—expected, considering my father had arranged this internship months ago. It was merely a formality, another move in his grand chess game. But this particular firm had ties to Blackwood Corporation, which meant occasional visits to the empire that had once been my world.I didn’t linger on that thought. My phone buzzed just as I reached my car. The name flashing across the screen made my heart lurch. Az. The investigator.I exhaled sharply and tapped the message open: I have something. It’s big. This will destroy her, but Blackwood Corp goes down with her. Do you still want it?My fingers tightened around the phone as a thousand possibilities rushed through my mind.

    KAELON’S POVAfter a while of staying together, I knew that I had to tell her something important. We had to come clean to the public before whoever was snooping around did. It would be devastating , but it will be more managed that way.“Kaelon,” Liv said, her voice tight, her gaze unwavering. She’d been quiet for a while now, but I knew she was stewing on something. She always did when she was worried, when something didn’t sit right with her. “What’s going on? What’s really happening?”I ran my hand through my hair, trying to think of a way to calm her down. Trying to find the right words to explain without escalating the situation further. “I think we’ve been compromised, Liv,” I said finally, my voice low. “Someone’s been watching us—watching you.”Her eyes narrowed, but she didn’t speak right away. She was waiting, letting me continue. I had to get it all out before she started asking questions I didn’t know how to answer.“I don’t know who, but I have a feeling it’s someone cl

    LIV’S POVAs I stepped through the door, I could feel the weight of the moment settle in. There was something about this place—something about Kaelon—that made everything else fade into the background. The faint hum of the office, the quiet bustle of people behind the walls, none of it mattered when I was with him.I offered Evelyn a polite nod as I passed her, noting the curious glance she gave me. She was always so composed, but I could feel the subtle tension in the air between us. Evelyn had a way of knowing everything, and she didn’t miss much. I wondered what she thought of me, but it wasn’t something I wanted to dwell on today. As I stepped further into the room, I caught sight of him at his desk, his gaze already on me. His lips parted in a smile—one that made my heart race in an instant. He didn’t even need to say a word. His eyes spoke volumes, and I could feel the warmth of his affection washing over me like a tide.I didn’t hesitate. My legs carried me forward without a s

    Kaelon’s POVThe thick, suffocating tension in my office made it hard to breathe. The lights above hummed low, the kind of sound that seemed to gnaw at my nerves, and I couldn't shake the feeling that something was off—something I hadn't quite pinned down yet. I sat at my desk, staring at the screen in front of me, the numbers from the latest report blurring together. "Mr. Blackwood," Evelyn's voice cut through the quiet hum of the office. She had been standing in the doorway for a few moments, observing me, and now she stepped forward, her tone sharp, her expression calm but knowing. "We need to talk."I looked up from the screen, my jaw tightening. Evelyn had always been cool, collected—almost eerily so—and that was why she was so good at her job. But today, her usual composed demeanor didn't reassure me. There was an underlying tension in her movements, a sense that she was as unsettled as I was."What is it?" I asked, my voice rough with frustration. "This situation with my offi
